Hi all: we found that partial read will cause full stripe read in now ec impl, for example: we have 4 chunks per stripe, 4K size per chunks and 16K per stripe, when we read rand 2K in a stripe,the reads will amplify to full stripe(16K +8K(Parity)).. i did not see any checksum or buffer related factor except the ec extentcache.does the extentcache is the purpuse of the mechanism? now we want increase the stripe width to improve the small random raed performance, but the mechanism limit the result... best regards! -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
